"Vkiml Ih $1im MJIJI Mm' TIIR RACE FOR A MINE" AT THE GRAND WEDNESDAY, A hair raising race between an au tomobile and a train and a desperate struggle at the edge of a cliff, are two of the exciting features of the Kalem drama, "The Race For the Mine," which will be shown at the Grand Theatre Wednesday, June 3rd. Morton & Porter, owners of the Sunset Mining Co., receive a letter from M. B. Parker offering them an option on a valuable borax mine. Baxter, an unscrupulous rascal, learns of this ofTer by underhand mcnas and determines to take advantage of it. The partners learn of his rascality, however, and Morton goes in pursuit. Baxter takes the train to Haynes' Statin, the home of the mine owner. Morton misses the train, and jumping into a racing auto he follows the train at top speed. How Baxter in his anxiety to purchase the option over-reaches himself, and how Morton rescues the girl from a bandit, there by winning a wife, in addition to foil ing Baxter, is shown in a rousing cli max.

Kausrud Westward Councilman Dr. L. P. Sorensen Councilman j C. E. Klepfer Councilman j H. C. Dippel East Ward Councilman J J- L. Kronenberg Councilman . . v -j P. J- Chatburn Councilman W. C. Sellmer Next Friday evening the voters of Bandon will choose tickets from which will be elected men to manage our municipal affairs for the next year, and it is time for the serious consideration of who these men are to be. The city is growing rapidly 'and many difficult prob lems wiU -have to be faced by the new council problems that will need careful, capable men to handle. Should the state go dry in the fall election, as is not improbable, it will take rare business management to adjust the city's affairs to the new conditions without causing temporary hardships. And should the water system be taken over, and later the electric system, there will be more need of practical business methods in the conduct of the city's business. From whatever angle the situation is viewed this fact is faced: we need a business administration now as never before. It is no time for petty politics or experiments, and the people should, and undoubtedly will, choose candidates solely on their merits and past performances. , Candidly, The Recorder considers Geo. P. Topping the best man put forward for mayor. His ability along lines of public endeavor has been proven heretofore. He is possessed of good business judgement, is exceptionally practical in all that he does, and has the courage of his convictions. He believes in a greater and better Ban don and will put in his best efforts to that end. For councilmen we have presented the men whose names appear above because of their practical ideas, and the fact that they have proven the value of their business judgement in their own personal affairs. They are uni formly progressive and believe that the city should get a dollar's value for every dollar spent. They will, we be lieve, conduct the city's affairs as carefully as they do their own. They are all taxpayers and excellent citizens in every respect. The office of City Recorder is a most important one. A trained man in this capacity may mean the saving of thousands of dollars yearly to a city. In Mr. Kausrud we have a trained man, and one who has spent much time and study in perfecting himself to better fill the position he holds. He is courteous, conscientious and able. He should he returned by all means.

Of over 1000 persons who went to their death Saturday with tho sinking of the Em press of Ireland, the bodies of more than 300 have been recovered. A search is being conducted for others, and the living, estimated at 355, aro either at or enroutc to their homes. With the Empress it became known today, went down a million dollars in silver bar3 from Cobalt. The Collier Storstad, which by ram ming the Empress of Ireeland during a fog caused the disaster, was badly damaged and Is proceeding slowly to Montreal. The accident occured at the mouth of the St. Lawrence river, and tho big liner sank fifteen, minutes after becing rammed, giving the passengers little or no chance to save themselves. LARGEST ATLANTIC LINER IS MODERN WONDER. New York, May 21. The Hamburg American liner Vaterland, the largest ves'sel afloat, arrived here today or. her maiden voyage. She was given a noisy welcome. The vessel sailed 14 and averaged 23.4 knots. A flotilla of tugs struggled with tho Vaterland four hours before she was convoyed to her berth. Meanwhile navigation on the North 'river was practically tied up. The vessel made 594 miles the last day of her trip over. While closely resembling her fam ous sister ship, the Imperator, the Vaterland exceeds her in all dimen sions. The new queen of tho seac measures 950 feet, or nearly five city blocks, in length. She is 100 feet in width and has a tonnage of 58,000. Not only docs tho Vaterland eclipse all previous records for size, but she represents tho very latest idea of ar tistic elegance and mechanical won ders. Some of the leading decorat ors of Europe were engaged to de sign and furnish her magnificent sa lons, dining rooms, grand hall and suites. The main sal6n is the largest hnll of its kind ever constructed or. shipboard. The woodwork is of sol id mahogany. There is an open fire place and natural light floods the hall tfirough a number of drawing room windows. The hangings consist of almost priceless tapestry, and orien tal rugs of the finest weaves cover the floors. The main dining room resembles the banquet hall of a great hotel. It will accomodate 800 diners at one time. Tho great size and steadiness of the vessel have mado it possible to furnish the dining room with mov able chairs in place of the swivel seats attached to the floors, common to ocean steamships. In addition to tjio main dining room the big ship has three restaurants. Everything on the Vaterland has been designed to look as much like a sumptuous hotel and as little like a ship as human ingenuity can do it. The windows are shaped and curtain ed 'like a private house. Elevators take the passengers from one deck to another. For the millionaires the staterooms are as beautiful as the first decorators of the world can make them. The second cabin has its spec ial social dining rooms, lounging and smoking rooms. The third cabin also has its separate public rooms and its staterooms are built to accomodate two and four persons. in tho steer age of the Vaterland the passengers, instead of being placed in one large room as on most ships, have separate cabins, arranged for families and small grougs. Every conceivable, precaution has been taken in the construction and equipmont of the Vaterland to assure the safety as well as the comfort of the pasengcrs and crew. An inno vation is a complete fire department, with a system of signals covering ev ery part of the ship, and a staff of fire fighters recruited from tho fire departments of German cities.. Her powerful wireless apparatus will en able her to keep in touch with land continuously. She carries a commo dore and four captains.
